"Can a woman forget her nursing child and have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you. Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of My hands. . ." (Isaiah 49:15-16)

Mercy for Monday

So, this bit of mercy was delivered to me through a testimony of a dear friend. . .a woman who was my worship mentor at camp. I was blessed to see her a few weeks ago, and my heart needed that! She has been battling cancer for years. I hadn't seen her without her hair (when I was with her at camp in the past, she hadn't cut her hair. It was long and gorgeous), and she was radiant! Still smiling, still the same God-centered woman! I asked her how she was feeling, and she says (the way only she could). . .paraphrased, "I don't ask myself that. I can't. The Word says that in Him we live and move and have our being. So how I am is not the concern, I am in Him and I live and move in Him." Praise God! What a teacher in her actions! Love that woman! So, for this week, I hope that you will meditate on the following scripture and be reminded that it is in Him that you live and move and have your being!"For in him we live, and move, and have our being. . ."

About Me

The Hiding Place by Corrie ten Boom

“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.”

A Quote by C.S.Lewis

"There is one vice of which no man in the world is free; which everyone in the world loathes when he sees it in someone else, and of which hardly any people, except Christians, ever imagine they are guilty of themselves. . .it was through Pride that the devil became the devil: Pride leads to every other vice; it is the complete anti-God state of mind."

Devotions

In an attempt to deepen my own faith walk and keep myself in the Word, I hope to make this a devotional blog where I post a weekly devotional at the end of each week. I am not an expert on the scripture. . . just an everyday gal who would like to learn more. Occasionally, I may post something I read or heard that I find inspiring! I hope that this can be a place of peace, reflection, and comfort for you as you journey on your own faith walk!
